Statistics Collection for Output Policies on Tunnel Interfaces Overview

You can configure the policy manager application to collect and store statistical counters for output policies attached to tunnel interfaces as a measure of the number of fragments. In certain network environments, it might be useful to monitor and track the outgoing traffic from a tunnel interface to which policies are applied in terms of number of fragments, instead of monitoring the outgoing policed traffic in terms of number of packets. Based on the topology needs and management of services for subscribers, you can configure statistics for traffic on tunnel interfaces with output policies to be counted as either numbers of fragments or numbers of packets.
